The dominance of blacks in basketball I believe is pretty strongly connected to genetic advantages. In olympic track meets, I understand blacks dominate both running andf jumping. I'd guess Daytona 500 is more cultural in nature guess. Before Tiger Woods there had been few very successful black golfers, but I guessed correctly that it was cultural I think. If blacks guys from Willy Mays, Aron, Bonds could get a moving baseball so well, why not a static golf ball. It was obvious to me that due to socioeconomic conditions, less access to golf as a kid was responsible for less great black golfers before Tiger.

As for big brother, to what extent enhanced technology will enhance life for humans or be used mostly for more lethal bombs and intrusive survalence by big brother.

Tom , I surmise we will find the intrusion of modern inventions into the human evolution more than just a census count. Big homogenous populations have shown a propensity to be erradicated in huge numbers. The jews died like flies in the ovens and the germans lost all population gains claimed by the National Socialists as the Eighth Air force blew them to hell in their cities and the Communists marched them north into siberia. The japanese have not recovered from their dynastic ambitions or the huge casualities they suffered from the marines and the B29. It appears genetic success is more than just numbers even more than planning smart offspring or marrying tall to get in the NBA. I was just watching a college basketball game, there were no white men on the court. I switched to The daytona 500 and saw no black drivers. Just a coincidence ,sure.
The whole diversity theory remains unproven and I will get on board with no group in the numbers who survive game. I think the huge randomness in biologic reproduction is more than even Watson can answer. Existance is a riddle to be lived but all the systems of rules and laws are self serving instruments of men. Unless they are existentialists like me I will probably avoid them. I know there are rules about who you may reproduce with but how many people are you forced to know? Big Brother may be watching but who is watching the survilllance screans. That is why I am so opposed to machine surveillance and forced judgement. It is just like the Red Queen screaming "off with Their heads" and cannot be tolerated if you expect any existential freedom. Darwin, FN, Eienstein and Jefferson are insulted by such totalitarianism. Man may be beaten by his machines but if he allows them to convict him he has lost the evolutionary race. Bill
